Strong Bones For All--Safely!

Concerns over 'bone health'...osteopenia...osteoporosis...continue to mount in the US. It's hard to understand why, being the US consumes more calcium supplements than any other country in the world---and even more hard to believe the US leads the world in rate of osteoporosis!

Osteoporosis does not occur overnight. It takes years and years to be detected clinically and even longer to become incapacitating to the individual. It is estimated that half of the people in the US over age of 50 have low bone density. This leads to over 1.5 million fractures a year, with some requiring surgery for repair (which comes with inherent risks of complications). Of those in this category that fracture their hip, 30% end up in long-term nursing care.

Routine treatment for osteopenia & osteoporosis has been calcium supplementation in various forms, vitamin D of different types, as well as bisphosphanates (like Fosamax ) which has been linked to abdominal pain, esophageal ulcers, jaw joint destruction and cancer.

Bones serve as the support framework for the body, the other main function of our bones is to as well as acting as a mineral bank for calcium, phosphorous, etc. Up to 1 Gram of calcium is needed each day for multiple functions in our body, like heart & nerve function and the GI tract. The calcium is withdrawn from your bones each day. Just like in any money bank account, both men and women need continuous deposits of calcium to keep the reservoir full when there are regular withdrawals.

The key is prevention and providing a mechanism for the oral calcium we take to be better absorbed and transported to where it is needed. Medications (like biphosphonates) do not serve this purpose. Their goal is to stop or slow bone resorption, and, as we're hearing more and more about, they pose serious health concerns in the process.

That's why I take a revolutionary 'bone health' product, designed to decrease bone resorption (that's good!) and increase new bone formation (that's even better!)--clinically proven & without any side effects. Contact the person who forwarded this blog site to you---or contact me if you have questions or concerns about your bone health---or the bone health of someone you love.

Here's to strong bones...our whole life through...just like God meant it to be!
